CHAPTER 266

When she had first met them on their first ever meeting, most of them had looked at her like a figure head, a lady without much but just beauty that she always used to get what she wants.

But when Li Jing presented the problem at hand before them and brought to their notice her own deadline and how well she would not tolerate those who wanted to lousy around and some rules… they began to have a change of mind and not see her as incompetent but a lady that knew what she was doing.

Of course, some of them did not take her serious and got the red card at the end of the day. Those that remained now knew that she was not to be joked with and took their work more seriously.

By the end of the week, she had gotten to a reasonable point with solving the matter with her father's company and the residence around at their other site had pulled back, withdrawing their law suit.

~Mr Lin Zian's Office~

In his big office, Chairman Lin Zian is seen sitting in one of his cushion while the three men from before sat at two other side chairs as they deliberated on Li Jing's progress.

"What can I say, she is a chip of the old block, Mr. Qiao Zemin said.

"Yes she is. She takes after your daughter sir. I think God wanted to repay you good and compensate you that he gave you such an outstanding granddaughter. She is really something else," Mr. Mo Shaoshen added.

"In just how many days, she has almost completed the work assigned to her," Qi Yaozu chipped in as well.

"That is not the best thing so far," Mo Shaoshen begun, attracting the attention of the others.

Lin Zian's brows creased at what his employee had said. That wasn't all? He wasn't so sure as to what he was going to say so he waited and listened.

"Or have you all forgotten that she removed those lousy workers not helping production sales and hired some new ones. Ever since she became the acting CEO, everyone had been up and doing. No one wants to be removed and as such they are all working their butts off to impress her and doing as they were told."

"True talk, Mo Shaoshen, Qi Yaozu and Qiao Zemin. I am happy you all are following through and getting things done. It looks like we have found ourselves the best CEO and the person right for the job. It was in Lin Jingyi's time that everything became a little bit sour as he wasn't handling them well and people became lousy."

"True sir. But you do not have to bother about the future of your company too much. She is indeed a good blood," Qiao Zemin encouraged Lin Zian.

"Yes. Anyways, once this issue is resolved, I would want for her to undertake the hotel business and head it together with Kim Fan."

"What?"

"Chairman sir."

"That is too much for her first fedw weeks here."

Each of them had their protest against his decision. They felt it was too much for Li Jing to handle.

"Just because she could handle a company when it had crisis doesn't mean she may be able to handle a hotel building project. Mind you sir, this is more oif a resort in a hotel form. So I do not think we should leave it all to her."

"True sir, Qi Yaozu is right. How about you still oversee this project and then you can put her on some things in the project but you would still be the one to oversee it," Qiao Zemin concurred.

"Hmm, I see." Mr. Lin Zian did not say anything further but analyzed things from their own point of view.

Of course it was okay to be scared about handing over everything for Li Jing to oversee but if they saw what he saw, the great potential the young girl had in her, they would not once doubt her abilities.

What was worse was that they would fear her and happily allow her take over. But the thing about the human mind especially when it was myopic and clouded, it was dwindled by fear.

They fear wastage of money and ruining of the project. This had been something they had been working for and even needed a fellow business to join in. It was big to them. It was huge and their fear took over.

Instantly they forgot about all the praise they had given Li Jing just now and now they are begging not to entrust such a work to her.

How ironical. Were they all just talk just now to earn his favour?

Lin Zian did not know what to think about these men. They were really small minded.

"So, if not Li Jing, who should I entrust the work to? Or are you insinuating that one of you three is capable of handling this business?"

"Ahh! No."

"No sir."

"Not at all sir. Chairman that is not what we meant sir."

"Then what did you mean? I cannot handle this business. I should be at the stage when I relax and watch the young ones take over. So if Li Jing shouldn't do it, I would appoint one of you to."

"No sir. Sir with your permission. We have never handled something of this sort before, so none of us is appropriate for this job sir," Qi Yaozu quickly interceded.

"Neither have I or Li Jing. There is always a first time for everything and here is your opportunity."

"Thank you sir, but we do not want this project to be bad," Mo Shaoshen added.

"Very correct sir," Qiao Zemin concluded. Lin Zian shook his head then smiled at them weakly.

"So you have no faith in your capabilities?" None of them could answer him. "Aren't you ashamed of yourselves? Should I be the one running this thing at this age? No, but here you are, people who have worked with me for at least a decade, none of you have the courage to take this up."
